I know what you mean. There are tools I see everyday and I ask, but why? I have started to just ask, why not? There doesn’t always have to be a use case and sometimes people just want to create shit. They don’t even care if others use it, but want to share it anyway in case there is that one other person that does.

Does there need to be a need? Some people just like to create things to see if they can. Some people like TUIs. There may not be a huge need for this, but it’s pretty freaking awesome to have.

Oof. Thanks. I deleted mine as well. Never really use it anyway because I was always afraid of what they might do with my money.

Yes, you have iptables and nftables, but it’s not always enabled. So, when I said installed, I really meant enabled. I 100% agree with what you are saying though.

Unfortunately a lot of places just have shitty IT and people go rogue because of it. Some people are just impatient though as it sounds like in this case.

You also have things like apparmor and selinux. If those are enabled, you might be chasing your tail trying to figure out why something is not working. You would need to know where to look and how to fix it.

This story has nothing to do with why Linux would be any better than Windows. Sure, if you lie to people, then anything can be convincing. What if I had a firewall installed in Linux, wouldn’t you have had the same issues?

This is sort of the problem I have with a lot of Linux enthusiasts, when you have a hammer, everything is a nail.

Compared to Windows and MacOS as a client desktop, Linux still severely falls behind, but it is getting better. For a server, Linux is just far superior.

Oh God. Those are the 2 worst ones. They are mainly used for IT tickets, not for developing software. Jira isn’t the worst, but it does lack basic features. It’s just when companies use Jira you just know you are going to have to deal with a bunch of PMs who all they care about is velocity.

There are so many other simplified alternatives these days. Basecamp is one.

Yeah. I just say qt as separate letters. Smh

Wait, how is it supposed to be pronounced?

Do YOU love yourself for who you are? Do you accept yourself and all your imperfections? Is there anything you are not happy with about yourself that you can change?

This is all that matters. Stop trying to push things and appreciate what you have. If there is something about yourself that you can change, then change it. Otherwise, stop worrying about what others think and learn to love yourself.

When you figure this out and learn this, everything else will follow. How can others love you, if you don’t even love yourself?

This has less to do with Elon and more to do with twitter itself. Why were other platforms created in the first place like Lemmy? Could it be to decentralize these platforms so that no one entity can control them, including the government? This whole shit show with Brazil shows us exactly why these platforms should exist. The oppression of the people need to stop.

Instead of complaining about others and offering no contributions to this platform, I’d love to hear your take on this and start an open discussion. It seems like you have something on your mind, so why not speak it?

I straight up told my kid that he will not be playing that game. So you’re not alone out there and you’re doing well by taking an interest in your child’s activity and monitoring them appropriately. I wish more parents would do the same.
